Charitable donations don't increase your standard deduction. Your entry might have reduced the taxable portion of your IRA distribution. The QCD entry is for those 70 1/2 or older who have some or all of their traditional IRA RMD sent directly to a charity. What I don't understand is Turbotax saying you have to mail in receipts or did you receive a notice from the IRS?
so can you clarify what you did and in what section you entered these donations.
